Opinion are those of the writer. DEADMAN® QUARTZ JUMP HOUR I don't understand their name, and they don't seem to make much effort at promoting it. These are super inexpensive as jump hours go.... Pricing is all over the place - I paid $29.99 for the one reviewed but I've seen online retailers trying to get as much as $250!! The lower price is more in line with the quality....but hey, I'm "jumping" ahead! Construction
Solid stainless steel case, acrylic plastic crystal, a vinyl-over-cloth fake leather band which will accommodate a large 8.25" wrist.
The watch is rated for only 3 meter of water resistance, so no swimming with this.
1 year warrantee. Very light(56 grams) - the case is fairly thin stainless, you can actually get a little "clang" if you strike it with your finger. Simple quartz movement with a lot of plastic parts. Display
It's a perfectly nice display except it isn't a true "jump hour". It is what I call a "scroll hour": the hour is always scrolling past, so you have some times when you haven't a clue what hour it is. Powered by a LR41 cell, which should give 1+ years of service. Mine came in a small cardboard box with no markings or directions. They are nice looking, but there isn't a lot of quality. It's just a nice "fashion watch", so don't pay too much if you decide to get one. It's not destined to become a collectible or a family heirloom. Comments: ed@thedigitalwatch.com |
